SNØ Business Plan: Re-Engaging Med Spa Clients with AI-Powered Automation

1. Executive Summary

SNØ (Norwegian for "snow") is a fully automated Lead AI recycling service focused on helping Med Spa and Aesthetic Clinics in the USA re-engage their previous customers. By using personalized AI-powered SMS outreach, SNØ encourages repeat visits, driving revenue for clinics with minimal effort on their part. Our target market includes clinics with over 500 contacts and treatments averaging $1,000 or more. SNØ operates on a commission-based revenue model, taking 30% of the treatment cost for each booking facilitated, ensuring clinics pay only for results. With a focus on automation, legal compliance, and scalability, SNØ aims to become a trusted partner for med spas seeking to boost client retention.

2. Business Description

SNØ re-engages inactive clients for med spas by leveraging their existing customer data. Clinics join via a waitlist form, and upon acceptance, they onboard by connecting their systems and uploading client data. SNØ’s AI sends 5-10 personalized SMS messages per contact, offering a $50 gift card as an incentive to book treatments. The gift card acts as a deposit, and clinics bill customers the full treatment cost at the visit, later paying SNØ a 30% commission. The process is streamlined using automation tools, ensuring ease for clinics and an engaging experience for clients.
